3 Utilization Notes

 This manual uses the symbol for especially important notes. Further notes will

be marked accordingly.

 All factory settings are marked “default”.

 In Chapters 4.6 to 7 the description consists of two columns. Individual functions

are described on the left side. The according AT commands and the modem re-

sponses can be found in the right column.

Function description AT command

Example:

Dialing IP 192.168.0.2 and port 1234 ATD192.168.0.2:1234

All AT commands start with the letters AT and end with a “Return” (Carriage Re-

turn - CR). AT commands can be entered in capital or small letters. The command is

processed after the modem received a CR input.

 In the following, the used syntax is explained:

4.4 HSComm GPRS

The configuration of the INSYS GPRS/EDGE 5.0 serial takes place via AT commands

which are entered by a terminal program or a control program in the form of char-

acter sequences. For a simpler set-up, all basic functions of the INSYS GPRS/EDGE

5.0 serial can be entered without knowing the individual AT commands and their

parameters, using the configuration software HSComm GPRS.

The software can be installed on the operating systems Microsoft Windows 2000

and Microsoft Windows XP. A terminal window to enter commands directly is

available (menu item “Terminal”).

In Chapter 5 - Connections - and Chapter 6 - Functions -, the HSComm GPRS or an-

other terminal program can be used for the configuration. The AT commands can

be directly entered into the HSComm GPRS at the menu item “Terminal”.

The HSComm GPRS checks the connected device during startup. By default, only

those settings can be selected which are implemented in the identified device.

The buttons in the right column can be used to select the current settings, to re-

start (reset) the device, or to set the factory settings (default).

The current can be saved as a file at the menu item "File" in the main menu at the

top window border, and reloaded at a later date.

The selected configuration of the parameters is only sent to the INSYS

GPRS/EDGE 5.0 serial after you click on the button Send settings.
